Deputies were called to 262 De Armond Road where they discovered 24-year-old Deeta Shavesha Weaver lying in the yard next to a mobile home and suffering from a gunshot wound. She was later pronounced dead by EMS. The suspect, 50-year-old Clifford Amos Koontz, reportedly fired shots at Deputies as they walked towards the home.
